Could it be a carb Problem?

I let a car sit for a couple years with about a gallon or 2 left in the tank...
Couldn't even get fuel to the filter to fire up the new motor........

The sending unit draw tube was gummed closed, used a coat hanger and some carb cleaner... then bought a new tank because I couldn't have this one in particular boiled...I was told it was a tank in tank collision 'explosion proof' style., plastic inside or something idk.



Next day..40 dollars for the fuel tank at a wrecker.
My advice ..
Take the fuel cap off, pull the line off the fuel hose off the fuel pump inlet and using co.pressed air...give it a couple blasts while a friend listens close for bubbles.... that will rule out any obstruction.


After that , rebuild the carb like already mentioned by rusty and others.
